I bought clothes this morning at a dress shop. It gave me an idea. Wouldn't it be great if there was a store that had all its lines in white. You tried on the different styles until you found a style/material you liked and size that fitted, then you go over to a counter and select what colour, fabric or pattern you want the thing in, you pay for it, it orders one for you, and the next week/day you come back in and pick it up or it gets posted out to you?? Perhaps the patterned/colours could be on display as swatches and change with the seasons.
Half the time I love the style, but hate the colours. Today I had to buy white trouser pants (eek I hope I can keep them clean). I would have prefered cream or brown. And there were lots of colours that I loved - but not in the tops that my bust would look good in!
Also, this way you could have more original clothing and not turn up to work where someone is wearing the identical top to you!
if you know of a store already like this - please let me know!!
Hi. I am Kylie gW - an artist and a scrapbooker (mostly digi scrapping now).
Kylie dressmakers do this quite often to check how a garment sits etc.It is called a toile.Mum used to often construct something from an old sheet first. WE used to dress up in them as kids.
ReplyDeleteHi Kylie! was just about to write the same as Julene, came to think about toile when I read your post. Thanks for popping by and leaving love! loooong time no see anywhere, no wonder if you haven't been scrapping for 2 months. What has ripped you off your mojo?! Miss your hilarious comments and quirky pages that make me smile - come back sweetie! Mwah!
ReplyDeleteWow. didn't know that. So how do we get it at Millers and all the rest of them? Toile power!
